Tim Dobbs – ‘London New York Pontycymmer’
In ‘London New York Pontycymmer… A day in the artist’s studio,” Tim Dobbs takes us on a tour of Kevin Sinnott’s home and studio. I’d call Sinnott’s painting “expressionist figurative” or “figurative expressionism,” something like that: brushy, splotchy, sketchy, a bit comical in some ways (the few in the zine, anyway: I’m not familiar with Sinnott’s …

Kevin O’Meara has a new zine out… ‘You might be right.‘ weaves together instant photographs with snippets of conversation, and it feels like a narrative I lived through, more or less.
James Baldwin, Richard Avedon – ‘Nothing Personal’
‘Nothing Personal’ is a largely unflinching portrait of mid-Century America, strangely re-released by Taschen at this time of American Greatness, and we’re really, very, very, really Great, where we’re all, really very united—it’s stupendous, really. The photographs of our heroes, they’re really, really great, really, and those other people in there, we love them, really. …
